Boreal Trade summary

Baffin Fisheries, also trading as Baffin Seafood, harvests and processes cold-water shrimp and Greenland halibut, also called turbot, from Arctic waters.

The company is based in Paradise, Newfoundland and Labrador. Its vessels are registered in St John's.

It is owned by the Hunters and Trappers Associations of five communities in the Qikiqtani region of Baffin Island. The company says it was incorporated on 6 November 2001.

Its trawler Inuksuk II, delivered in 2024, has an onboard plant for frozen-at-sea shrimp and groundfish. The freezing equipment includes shrimp IQF tunnel freezers and plate freezers.

Inuksuk II was first deployed in the Eastern Arctic, fishing shrimp and Greenland halibut.

Which export markets it sells into is not established from public sources. Its certifications and plant registrations are not stated here.

The product range is narrow: two Arctic species, frozen. That suits importers and distributors looking for frozen shrimp or Greenland halibut from a single Canadian source.

It may also suit buyers who want to know who owns the supplier, since ownership is Inuit and community-based.

Approval means the destination authority has listed the establishment. It does not tell you whether the company is currently shipping.

Canada publishes an approved-establishment list for Vietnam, Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia, and none for Thailand or the Philippines, so those two read "not yet verified" for every company.

Elsewhere it means we have not found the company on that market's list, never that they are unregistered.

What a buyer in each destination has to settle before a shipment from this company can land. Registration rules sit with the importer, not the exporter.
